Thread Name: songs that are sneered at
Subject: RE: songs that are sneered at
I try not to sneer at any song although some are obviously "over sung".

At the more commercial end, you get the likes of "Wagon Wheel", "Galway Girl" sung ad nauseum at sessions and on. Good songs in their own right if only they had been left to the OCMS and Steve Earle themselves.

However, what irritates me even more are those parodies of over sung sung songs. If they really hate them so much, why not just ignore them? Also, if they must insist on composing daft nonsensical ditties, then they should try to be original at least!
